It has a specialty rotor right now. Would it be worth putting in an AFX Rotor or the Kit that's a little more afordable? If any of you have done it, will it noticeably increase capacity or make a cleaner sample? Lastly if i decide to do it would it be better to go the cheaper route with the afx kit or should you get the whole rotor? Thanks for any help

If you already have a specialty rotor just put in the Kile kit and put the other 4k in your pocket, or you can put it in my pocket if you are feeling particularly gratuitous.

I would install the axcellar kit from Argis 2000 in listowel it's not to far away from you. We installed it in our 2366 and it made a big difference we were able to cut half an hour to an hour longer at night. Also cuts back on rotor growl quite a bit. Will also give you a little more capacity.

Put gordon bars in, turn the pump up, unhook the wastegate, and maybe install the axceller kit in it and call it a day.

Ditto on axcellar. Did 2 of mine and was the best upgrade ever.

I was going to get rid of my red combine long time ago....put a Kiel kit in I still have a hard time believing it is the same machine....I bet I have way more than saved the cost in the kit in fuel savings....it still boggles my little brain how case could have been so stupid for so long before the fixed the front of the roster...of coarse if they had half a brain they would have picked the correct diameter for there rotor and make it out of an actuall pipe instead of a porlly rolled tube tacked to gether. .....you will not regret it no matter how you get it

Funny thing is, Kile makes a kit for the afx too and it is a hot seller.

If your specialty is in good order and you like the job it does, keep it and install a Kile kit as well as their transition plates and you can keep 90% of your settings.

The money you save can buy a new rear axle for your machine.

I would suggest the Kile kit. My neighbour installed one in his 2188 w/ specialty rotor for this harvest. I have the kile kit ready to go on our AFX rotor. I put in the rotor transition bars last year from kile. I'm not sure why there were rub bars in the cone? It doesn't make sense.

case you've turned up your pump and unhooked your waste gate with good results? I turned up the pump on our 7240 and unhooked the wastegate on it. It made a huge difference. There is a pyro on it so I can see how warm she gets though. 230 HP compared to 280hp too. I have to check fuel pressure on it this year, it might need new fuel pumps or an overflow valve.

Thanks guys ill look into it. Got some other stuff to do on it to deal with the air conditioning changing concaves and putting new rasp bars in. Can't wait till harvest starts!
